I have had my Bissell Healthy Home for just over a year. I use it once or twice a week on five area rugs and two small bedrooms with wall to wall carpet. Just recently, the motor started to sound extremely loud and it smells like it's burning. The vacuum still picks up everything and all the brushes are turning. Advice? I really like this vacuum and would really like to fix it rather than replace it!

Vacuum problem i have a bissell total floor velocity and everytime i turn it on it makes this really loud noise like it's about to exploded. We changed the belt but that wasn't the problem and we just bought the vacuum a little over a year ago.

Check the brush roll, do the ends turn freely, if not, replace it. Could have a clog in the hose or the dirt inlet by the brush roll, the other could be a bad motor. ...

Bissell 4140 really loud when vacuuming

My Bissell series 65832 vacuum's rotating floor brush is making a really loud noise like its hitting something when ever I turn it on. Can you tell me how I can fix .

Any suggestions!?

Loud noise I have a brand new Dyson and it is great on all my floors except one of my area rugs when it starts making this really loud vibrating noise. I am not sure why - nothing is stuck in the roller or vacuum and it doesn't make it on any of my other rugs. Also it is really hard to push whereas all the other floors it just glides. I don't want to return it but I also don't want to hear this sound every time I vacuum.

Loud noise?? my vacuum suddenly just got really loud. it suctions fine, i changed the belt, but when the roller is off its not loud, but when i put it back on the 11noise is horrific. it vacuums fine i just cannot stand the noise. please help

I have the exact same problem. I've taken the thing apart and cannot figure out what is causing the noise. It's not the belt and it doesn't seem to be coming from the engine. It sounds like the spinning brush is hitting something, but it's not, th ...
Bissell 6590 CleanView Bagless Upright Vacuum

Hover Elite Rewind
I've only had this vacuum a few months and I really liked it until now. There is almost no suction from anywhere in the vacuum, and I've cleaned all the filters and rollers with my shop vac and made sure that everything was assembled correctly. It used to be really quiet now it is quite loud and it keeps over heating, and shutting off. At this point I have no idea what could cause this problem, the machine is nearly brand new and I can't afford a new one at this point.

You have to clean out the hose under the bottom of the vacuum cleaner. To do this you have to remove the bottom plate the covers the brush it has about 6 screws. Also remove the brush and belt in order to thourhly clean it. I had the same issue you h ...

My bissell vacuum power groom has become VERy loud. its deafening

My bissell vacuum is very loud and the belt keeps breaking

My Bissell Proheat 12 amp is hard to push forward(whether on or off). There is a loud clicking noise when pushing forward and it ''jumps'' up on every loud click. It's OK when pulling backwards, sprays and vacuums up water. Belt appears OK. Thanks

I had this same problem and here is what solved it for me. On a previous cleaning session, my wife decided to take the two front screws out of the clear plastic shroud that covers the brushes in order to clean behind it. Upon re-installation, she did ...

Really LOUD Just recently this vacuum went from the normal everyday vacuum to now sounding louder than my power saws in my workshop. Checked for clogs.. everything is clear.... cleaned it all over and then turned it back on and.... The neighbors thought I was running a saw mill out of my house. HELP!

My hoover 600 elite is really load. I took it all apart to find the motor fan is damaged with a broken off piece which must have been vacuumed up into the bag. If I replace it sith a new plastic fan will this quiet the vacuum? right now it is tremendously loud.

I have a windsor vsp 14, it is making a bad grinding noise, when I take the top blue piece off it stops, the brush works fine and when I put the top back on it grinds really loud and gets hot. it still vacuums and the belt and brush are working fine, can't figure it out. and when the lid is on I cant see what its grinding on. It only makes a grinding noise when you pull handle back and engade to vacuum flor and stops when you put it upright.
